The diggers arrived a bit later than anticipated, but once they get started, nothing is stopping the O'Briens. They came in the morning and finished the same day.
Remember this ?
And this ?
You can read about that here
An extra drain pipe was placed underneath the road to lead the excess water from the stream. Hopefully now the little brook can cope after a heavy downpour. As you can see the level is low, because it hasn't rained in a while.
This is what used to happen.
Would you believe me if I told you it is easier to walk too ?
This is going to last us forever (famous last words). At the top of the road they dug a new drain with pipe to lead flood water away into the stream instead of over the road.
Great job, lads !
I bet these will all have disappeared before Christmas.
Enjoy your day !

That looks amazing, we could have used a roadway like this at our place before last, like you we are pretty gypsy like and have lived our lives at many a home, down many a dirt tack.
